Two of The College of Wooster's five All-Ohio champions earned North Coast Athletic Conference Athlete of the Week honors on Monday, with junior Drew Patterson claiming the women's field award and junior Athena Tharenos taking the middle-distance and distance prize.

Patterson, who continues to hold down the top spot within the NCAC in high jump this season, cleared a new collegiate-best of 5 feet, 4.5 inches at Saturday's All-Ohio Championships. Patterson did not miss an attempt during the progression until the bar was raised above 5 feet, 4.5 inches. The two-time NCAC Athlete of the Week this season beat out Wittenberg University's Taylor Weiss in a jump off for the All-Ohio title.

Tharenos, a four-time NCAC Athlete of the Week, won the 800 meters with a time of 2:21.86 at Saturday's meet. The junior's converted oversized to flat time of 2:23.50 ranks second in the conference this season. Tharenos scored All-Ohio honors for the fourth time as part of the Fighting Scots' third-place 4x400 relay that stopped the clock at 4:12.73 on Saturday.

Wooster now has seven NCAC Athletes of the Week during the indoor season, with four coming from the women's team.

Wooster returns to action at Friday's Kenyon College Classic.
